Mortality and cardiovascular events in online haemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) compared with high-flux dialysis: results from the Turkish OL-HDF Study
Ercan Ok,Gulay Asci,Huseyin Toz,Ebru Sevinc Ok,Fatih Kircelli,Mümtaz Yilmaz,Ender Hur,Meltem Sezis Demirci,Cenk Demirci,Soner Duman,Ali Basci,Siddig Momin Adam,Ismet Onder Isik,Murat Zengin,Gultekin Suleymanlar,Mehmet Emin Yilmaz,Mehmet Ozkahya +16 more
TL;DR: The composite of all-cause mortality and nonfatal cardiovascular event rate was not different in the OL-HDF and in the high-flux HD groups and, in a post hoc analysis, OL-hDF treatment with substitution volumes over 17.4 L was associated with better cardiovascular and overall survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Fluid Management Guided by Bioimpedance Spectroscopy on Cardiovascular Parameters in Hemodialysis Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Ender Hur,Mehmet Usta,Huseyin Toz,Gulay Asci,Peter Wabel,Serdar Kahvecioglu,Meral Kayıkçıoğlu,Meltem Sezis Demirci,Mehmet Ozkahya,Soner Duman,Ercan Ok +10 more
TL;DR: Assessment of fluid overload with bioimpedance spectroscopy provides better management of fluid status, leading to regression of left ventricular mass index, decrease in blood pressure, and improvement in arterial stiffness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strict volume control normalizes hypertension in peritoneal dialysis patients
TL;DR: Findings show that normal BP can be achieved by severe salt restriction combined with increased UF in the majority of CAPD patients, but also by a decrease in residual renal function and Kt/V index.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regression of left ventricular hypertrophy in haemodialysis patients by ultrafiltration and reduced salt intake without antihypertensive drugs.
TL;DR: It is suggested that good long-term BP control and a decrease of LVM can be achieved by continuous efforts to control hypervolaemia and the decrease in volume may be even more important than pressure reduction to achieve this goal.
Journal ArticleDOI
The benefit of salt restriction in the treatment of end-stage renal disease by haemodialysis
Meral Kayıkçıoğlu,Murat Tumuklu,Mehmet Ozkahya,Oner Ozdogan,Gulay Asci,Soner Duman,Huseyin Toz,Levent Can,Ali Basci,Ercan Ok +9 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that salt restriction and reduced prescription of antihypertensive drugs may limit LV hypertrophy, better preserve LV functions and reduce intradialytic hypotension in HD patients.
